Neymar's Agent Dismisses Rumors of Return to Santos

Neymar will remain at Al-Hilal and is not planning a return to Brazil, according to the player’s agent, Pini Zahavi.

Recent reports suggested that Neymar and Al-Hilal were negotiating an early termination of his contract, potentially paving the way for a return to his boyhood club, Santos. Speculation grew amid ongoing challenges for the Brazilian forward, who has been sidelined by injuries and has only managed to play in seven matches for the Saudi Pro League side, scoring one goal while earning over $100 million.

Zahavi categorically denied these rumors:

"There are no discussions about Neymar leaving Al-Hilal. He has a contract, and he is very happy there. Neymar's father and I are the only ones authorized to discuss his future. I have no idea where these recent rumors are coming from."

A Challenging Start in Saudi Arabia

Neymar joined Al-Hilal in a high-profile move from Paris Saint-Germain but has struggled to make an impact due to recurring injuries. Despite the club’s immense financial investment, Neymar's contributions on the pitch have been limited, fueling speculation about his future.
